I had my oil changed last year upon seeing some suspicious activity during this oil change at Walmart, they were dishonest and lied to my face about my skid plate missing bolts underneath. I told them there's is no way my mobile mechanic put all four back on last night after it fell off while driving. So they lied to me. I filled a complaint. My car started driving weird. Then about two weeks later my car while in park, out of no where wouldn't reverse the steering wheel way locked it hard to turn. And sounded like a broken garbage disposal. It wasn't drivable.i have a2014 Ford edge sel. I ended up having it towed to Ford dealership in Tustin and I remembered that I had just saw online fright before the oil change that there was recalls three online pee my vin in a search . I dropped the keys off at Ford and put the the recall numbers on the envelope going they could look at it. I was told over the phone what the issue was she is be about 1900.00 to replace. I told him there's no way it is that expensive. The party was about 200.00 and the job should only take about 1-2 hours of even that.I told him I was homeless sleeping out of my car with my daughter 5, at the time what are my options. I told him I had mechanical breakdown coverage he called me back saying the claim for coverage was denied when I had talked to them they were waiting for the dealership to call over with necessary repairs information. So I already knew he was being deceptive she and dishonest. I asked him to email me a list of itemized by repairs that needed to be done to the office so i could see what i could afford. Hey emailed me a blank email no list of repairs. I emailed him back telling him there's was no estimate and if he could resend it . No response. ong story longer dealership refused service to my vehicle. my harmonic balancer remains an issue after I replaced it myself and local shop did the timing. Powersteering pump has air in it. Steering wheel locks when driving. Loud sounds.

My car is in need of a new water pump. This is a known repair needed in Ford V6 3.5 & 3.7-liter engines 2012-19 Explorer, Taurus, Edge & more. The water pump is placed in the engine so that a simple 1 hr. repair takes 10-12 hrs of labor costing customers thousands of dollars. There is no reason for this to not be on the recall list!!!!! This is confirmed by Ford dealers. There is no warning that comes up until the part has already failed, also causing other parts of the engine to be repaired.

Pulled out of a parking lot onto a busy street locally, car lost power and the orange wrench light came on. Would not go, all the car did was jerk and sputter. Engine did not shut off but would only coast/roll into the middle lane and managed to coast/roll into another business parking lot next door to where I pulled out from and once parked, I turned ignition off and back on. Wrench light went out and car started. No codes were apparently shown when hooked up to the machine at the car lot the next day (wrench light was still off) this is very scary and very dangerous whatever it is, it needs investigated and fixed so us Ford edge drivers can feel safe when driving. Also 1 week before this my check engine light came on, same code 3 times came up for eval, emissions ECT... Now no codes are showing since the wrench light came on Sunday and my car stopped moving.

I DROVE MY 2014 FORD EDGE UP ABOUT TWO BLOCKS TO A BUSY STREET, AND ATTEMPTED TO MAKE A LEFT TURN WHEN IT WAS CLEAR / SAFE. MIDWAY ACROSS A 5 LANE STREET, MY CAR STALLED. AS MUCH AS I PUSHED THE GAS PEDAL, NOTHING HAPPENED. THE WRENCH SYMBOL APPEARED ON THE DASH, AND THE CAR WAS SHAKING. I HAD MY TWO BABIES IN THE CAR WITH ME, AND WE'RE LUCKY WE WEREN'T T-BONED BY TRAFFIC COMING AT US FROM BOTH DIRECTIONS. I WAS SOMEHOW ABLE TO COAST ACROSS THE INTERSECTION IN TIME TO PULL OVER SAFELY. ONCE I WAS STOPPED THE CAR FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES TO CALL ROAD SIDE ASSISTANCE, I STARTED THE ENGINE AGAIN, AND EVERYTHING SEEMED NORMAL. I TRIED TO DRIVE IT FURTHER, BUT AFTER ABOUT 20 MILES, IT STALLED AGAIN THE SAME WAY. AGAIN, I PULLED OVER AND TURNED IT OFF, AND IT SEEMED TO WORK WHEN I TURNED IT BACK ON. ONCE IT STALLED FOR A THIRD TIME, I HAD TO PULL OVER AND HAVE IT TOWED. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH, THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM OTHER DRIVERS ARE FACING WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL, AND IT IS A VERY DANGEROUS SAFETY ISSUE. THE VEHICLE GAVE NO WARNING THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG (LIKE AN INDICATOR LIGHT IN ADVANCE OR EVEN A STRANGE NOISE) BEFORE IT STALLED, AND I HAVE RECEIVED NO COMMUNICATION FROM FORD ABOUT THIS SAFETY ISSUE OF WHICH FORD SEEMS TO BE AWARE.

THE WRENCH ICON APPEARED, BUT WAS ABLE TO STEER, AROUND A FEW FEET, INTO A SERVICE STATION . THE VEHICLE CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. I KEPT THE ENGINE RUNNING BUT THERE WAS NO ACCELERATION. WHEN PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR THERE WAS NO ACTIVITY. I PLACED THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND TURNED OFF THE IGNITION. MAYBE ONE MINUTE LATER, I RESTARTED THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE STARTED RIGHT UP. THE ACCELERATOR WORKED PROPERLY. INSTEAD OF ENTERING THE FREEWAY I TOOK ANOTHER ROUTE HOME,WHICH WAS ABOUT 15 MILES AWAY. I HAD THE VEHICLE TAKEN TO A FORD DEALERSHIP THE NEXT DAY WHICH WAS 4/11/2019. AFTER INSPECTING IT,FORD STATED THEY COULD NOT IDENTIFY ANY PROBLEMS. I HAVE AROUND 76,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. I AM VERY MUCH AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE, BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY DANGER THAT IT POSE. I AM RETURNING IT BACK TO FORD FOR FURTHER INSPECTION. I DID NOT RECEIVE ANY WARNING BEFORE THE VEHICLE LOSS ACCELERATION. I WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO AVOID A CRASH, IF THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN THE USUAL TRAFFIC OR IF I WOULD HAVE ENTERED THE FREEWAY AS PLANNED.

IN NOVEMBER 2018, WHEN DRIVING ON A 2 LANE ROAD IN THE CITY, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST ALL ACCELERATION AND THE WRENCH LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD CAME ON. I HAD TO QUICKLY MANEUVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AS THE VEHICLE LOST SPEED AND CAME TO A STOP. PUSHING DOWN ON THE ACCELERATOR WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING. I HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO A DEALER, WHERE THEY DIAGNOSED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY WAS BINDING DUE TO CARBON BUILD-UP. THE DEALER REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY AND CLEANED THE FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM AND FUEL METERING SYSTEM. AS THE VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY, I HAD TO PAY OVER $650 FOR THE REPAIRS.

AT 70 MPH ON LEFT LANE OF HIGHWAY IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE WITH NO EMERGENCY SHOULDER, WRENCH SYMBOL APPEARED AND IT WOULD NOT KEEP UP TO SPEED. BECAUSE OF THE SUDDEN SLOW DOWN, WE WERE ALMOST HIT SEVERAL TIMES TRYING TO GET TO THE RIGHT. THE SPEED DROPPED SUDDENLY. LIMPED IT ALONG TO WHAT WE "THOUGHT WAS A SAFE EXIT" AND CALLED STATE POLICE.
